Skip,
Wow, thank you for the rave unsolicited review! I certainly enjoyed
your visit and the opportunity to chat and discuss ideas with another
experienced coiler. Perhaps with your assistance as offered we can
get some of my "TOYS" set up for a Shelburne Teslathon late this
summer/fall. I know of two for sure, the Coronatron (for cooking the
St. Elmo
Dogs), and the large Tesla coil (for cooking the mosquitos). Of
course the twin will be setup, possibly in the electrical theatre
which may be under construction by then.
Any coilers wishing to help me make a Shelburne Teslathon a reality
this year are invited to contact me by e-mail or telephone -at-
1-519-925-1771.
Cheers,
Robert W. Stephens
